Synthesis and characterizations of quaternary Cu2FeSnS4 nanocrystals

Abstract

Quaternary tetragonal Cu2FeSnS4 nanocrystals have been synthesized by a simple hot-injection method. Detailed characterizations have been made. A suitable optical band gap of 1.28 ± 0.02 eV and a notable and stable photoelectrochemical response indicate their potential for application in solar cells.
